Rebecca Cassidy is a noted anthropologist. This 13 minute CD of her lecture at the 2011 Falling Walls Conference documents her ambitious project: GAMSOC.
Financed by the European Research Council, a group that is focused on proposing a new perspective on gambling regulatory control to the European legislative bodies.
Gambling's many forms include everything from horse racing, casinos, on line capability, and sporting events presenting a monumental regulatory challenge, particularly in a world where anyone can gamble anywhere with a simple hand held device.
GAMSOC conducts anthropologically, ethnographically, and technologically focused research on the practice of gambling on a multinational level and still highlights the strong and cultural individual specificities
For anyone involved with the gambling industry, whether as an owner of a web site, a casino, a sports team, or a regulator, this lecture is a must have in your portfolio of knowledge.
